Robin Gibb: No... No I don’t.

Barry Gibb: Nancy Pelosi you have been [goes up an octave] one of the most outspoken opponents of President Bush’s plan. Why-y?

Nancy Pelosi: Because America cannot afford Presidents Bush gambling our future on the stock market. It’s almost as if he’s trying to turn the entire country into Republicans!

Barry Gibb: Huh, that’s an interesting point.

Barry Gibb: No you don’t huh?

Robin Gibb: Mm-mmm.

Barry Gibb: Anne Coulter. You’ve accused Liberals of hating America. [Up an octave] You said that women shouldn’t be allowed to vote. You must have some strong opinions on Social Securitaah.

[Huge applause for Barrymore]

Anne Coulter: Thank you for having me. Thank you. In response to your question, Mr. Gibb, that’s exactly the kind of vicious Liberal slander that the left wing media…

Barry Gibb: [interrupting] Ah, ah, ah be-before you go any further can I just ask a question? What is wrong with your face? You look like a rubber glove stretched over a skeleton!

Anne Coulter: [aghast] Oh! Typical liberal bias!
